A cold day and a new lens. in The odd entries from life …….

The Cricket Season is coming close, a friend at Church loves to watch the game, I took some shots for him but I’m longest lens I had as 85mm, the game is some way off with a 85mm lens.

I’ve looked at second hands lenses of 200 to 400mm, all were to much, £200 to £450, so I looked at the new chipper market, one that hit my eye was a Tamron AF 70 - 300mm zoom lens; it is in my cost and had very good reports about it.

So I spent out £94 for the lens, I can just hold the lens in my hand near to 200mm, 300mm is more dificalt, my tripod needs new pads, then I can the best out off the lens; and I should delever sharp images of the great grame.

I’ve been out around my end of the village, just looking for any thing that caches my eye or lens, I think it is up to near to its five stars rating; I hope it is ...................
